Make a space for nature at the front of your house.

The festival is for everyone - young and old, skilled gardeners and those willing to learn, those of us with concrete driveways and those of us with no soil - as far as wildlife is concerned every little helps! From driveway gardens to wildlife havens, from patio pots to plants for pollinators, from bird feeders to edible beds anything goes!
